  1. This is pretty much the state of the storm right now. (@stormtracker if this needs to be moved to banter)
  2. I got you, give me a second to make a meme
  3. The vort weakens more than the 12z run which probably explains why its both colder and worse with the coastal. Result is a smidge colder and an asshair drier (for around DC at least)
  4. GFS is out and running. No real change through hour 18 besides maybe a bit more confluence and a tinny bit stronger low
  5. When do you think we could have a good handle on the vort pass and backend snow situation? It seems that the models that are the best with the WAA for my area sorta miss with the backend and vise versa. Want to make an updated forecast for my friends and family but am waiting for more agreement on that last part, and thanks for the post!
  6. Since you’re giving out snowfall ranges for various places do you think the Ashburn/Reston area should be in a solid 6-10 range? Seems like at this point the WAA should get us well and if we’re lucky with the coastal we could her higher end amounts
  7. either way it still gets us to 7ish inches by the end of its run with at least 2-6 more with the coastal fluff so not even a bad run verbatim, but is a little worrying if it nudges any further north
  8. I know its the NAMs at range but should NOVA be worried about the weird dry slot it shows with the WAA?
  9. As someone who is that age I don’t remember anything much before 2016 besides glimpses of storms. I vaguely remember the 2016 blizzard but wish I could recall more about it. The Monday system may be the first time I can truly remember getting 10+ inches of snow (ig Jan 2019 counts too but yk what I mean)
  10. Fwiw NAM 3k is slightly colder than the 12z upstairs
  11. Seems to have a more expansive dry slot which isn’t great
  12. At hour 60 the sleet line is ever so slightly south (from cutting through fx county to being just south)
  13. Hell of a way to get .1! As someone too young for the 2014 squall this was a first time thing. Should have a timelapse up later
  14. That was incredible! Thunder snow, watching the clouds come in, the progression from melted flakes to a snow globe, this may be one of my favorite winter events ever.
  15. Heard a rumble of thunder, sadly not snowing as the cell that produced it slid to my north. Reminds me a lot of summer
  16. Remember we only use 10-1 when it shows the most snow
  17. Is anyone out near Winchester or in that band able to confirm if its 1. actually reaching the ground 2. rain or snow
  18. Is there any great way to tell a sounding between borderline sleet and snow? I know roughly that 600 feet plus of warm nose is where trouble happens but hard to tell if thats on the sounding maps.
  19. The funny part is that the storm is almost split in two around the DC area with roughly half of the snowfall from the WAA and half from the coastal. Not sure I would really want to bet on the coastal giving that much but who knows.
  20. Significantly so too, some of the forum even gets fringed
  21. Looks more snowy than it’s 12z run so far
  22. Meanwhile CMC out to hour 72 has a slightly more amped S/w but better confluence than it’s 12z run
  23. Not horrible verbatim but if it trends any further north it’ll get ugly for most of forum where people live
